           Summary: No way to lock screen after sleep
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gnome-screensaver
        AssignedTo: ogra at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: arne at datafloater.de

There seems to be no way to configure GNOME to lock the screen and ask for a
password when the computer is suspended. 

This is a very important security issue! After sleep a possible attacker should
need to reboot the machine if he does not have the password so that all
encrypted filesystems are no longer accessible.
